Joseph, <<<ANYONE who is Intel CFO has got a *real* job to do, wouldn't you agree ?>>>

Delivering the numbers according to GAAP is not too different than Ronald Reagan's Voodoo economics. Not only do you have to deliver the numbers, you also have to be able to sell those numbers to your constituency.

Since Craig Barrett is not that terrific in delivering sound bites, he thinks Andy Bryant could do the job.

Hello? Hello there? Andy Bryant is as good at delivering those sound bites as those lousy Intel commercials on TV.

Get real Folks. Get rid of Andy Bryant as your spokes person. I don't care what he does behind the scenes, as long as he can deliver the numbers. But Puhleeze, don't let him spin those numbers to the investment community. He just can't do the job.

While I'm at it, you might also just get rid of that advertising agency that does your commercials. That is a complete waste of money. Why don't you just donate that money to some good cause - like feeding the homeless. At least that would buy some positive press. No matter what that agency has done in the past, they are not doing anything now.

You have to be a compelte idiot to think that those commercials have any value.

What a waste.
